~One Cybertronian mouth has passed, but in normal terms half a year has passed, Iacon Airspace, a Decepticon warship called the Nemesis~
StarScream had Elita-One and Arcee pinned down as he shot down at them with his Null rays, his Seeker troopers helping him. Arcee had a shot shoulder, and Elita-One wasn't getting a chance to return fire.
VanX was running to get a good shot with the Mandalorian-sized rifle to take a shot at StarScream, he stopped as he got to a good position and took aim, his scope was set onto StarScream's head.
~Meanwhile~
Optimus had cornered Megatron.
"Prime..." Megatron said.
"One shall stand... One shall fall..." Optimus said.
"Why throw away your live so recklessly?" Megatron said with a smirk.
"That's a question you should be asking yourself." Optimus said as he charged Megatron, the two of them fought each other on the top of the Nemesis, the Autobots and Decepticons in the city of Iacon fought each other as this all happened on the Nemesis.
Megatron shot Optimus in the midsection with his fusion canon, pink energon spewed from Optimus' side, Megatron ran up and kneed Optimus in the faceplate, leaving a dent and busting one of Optimus' optics, energon leaking from that as well.
"You made a grave mistake by returning to Cybertron old friend." Megatron said as he stomped his boot onto Optimus' chest.
"Did you really think you'd have a chance at returning?" Megatron grilled Optimus as he aimed His Fusion canon at Optimus' face at point blank Range.
"I may fall Megatron, but there will always be good people who will stop evil... even if they themselves were once evil..." Optimus said, Megatron cocked his head to the side as he heard Optimus say those words, but at that moment, he felt the feeling of a double barrel fusion canon be pressed up to his head, he turned and was greeted by his most trusted friend, Tarn...

"Tarn?" Megatron said.
"My name is Springer; it was the name I was born with." Tarn said as he kept his aim on Megatron's head.
"You're a traitor..." Megatron said, still surprised that Tarn would do this, he was his most loyal Decepticon.
"The Decepticons were started with protecting the weak and standing up for those who couldn't stand up for themselves, but your lust for power led us into becoming warmongering Terrorists that kills the weak for their own gain." Tarn said, reprimanding Megatron.
Megatron looked down at Optimus and then back up at Tarn. "You are that secret Informant of the Autobots." Megatron said. "No, StarScream is, I have been loyal to my friends, Arcee and Elita-One, they are my friend and my family, you are just a bucket helmet wearing shell of a power-hungry tyrant!" Tarn said.
"Hmm, I guess your right Orion... One shall stand, and one shall fall..." Megatron said.
Then he shot Optimus in the chest, blowing open a hole to his spark chamber, Tarn yelled and shot at full blast into Megatron's midsection, he then rushed Megatron and he strattled him and started smashing his fists into Megatron's face, Megatron was once the Idol of the pits, but sitting on a throne causes you to lose your touch some time as Tarn had all the advantage, he was the second most deadly Decepticon besides StarScream by Training alone and Tarn used all his fighting prowess to beat the shit out of Megatron, he soon punched Megatron in the same place where he shot him, Megatron knelled over in pain...
Tarn picked Megatron up and walked over to the edge of the Nemesis and threw him over, Megatron fell all the way down to the battleground in the city, everyone stopped what they were doing and looked into the mist of th crater Megatron made when he landed, Megatron crawled out from the crater and looked around, Decepticons looked in shock at seeing their king in such an injured and wounded state...
The Autobots on the ground led by Ultra-Magnus looked in both shock and interest at Megatron...
Tarn up on the Nemesis came over to Optimus' side, holding his hand as he thought of a way to save the dying leader. "Orion, I-I can't stop the bleeding, what should I do?" Tarn said to Optimus.
"S-Springer... this war has gone on long enough, Cybertron needs... people to lead it like you... and VanX... he is a warrior like you as well, I was just a mere officer when this war started... The bleeding can't be stopped, I'm going to join the Allspark soon, but before I do that, I must give VanX a fighting chance... he was the one described in the pages of the Covenant... The thirteenth Prime... he is... is..." Optimus said but he started to stutter from the blood loss, Tarn tried to help Optimus up, but the blood was pooling up everywhere...
~Back with VanX~
VanX loaded a rifle round into the rifle and took aim at StarScream, but as he did this StarScream turned and looked at him. "The Mandalorian, take fire!" StarScream shouted and he and his seekers stopped shooting at Arcee and Elita-One and VanX turned and jumped but a medium piece of Shrapnel sliced into his Jetpack and rendered it useless, VanX then started to fall, panicking as he noticed his Jetpack's damage, Arcee reached out and called VanX's name, Tarn and Optimus looked over and saw him falling, Optimus focused the last of his energy to throw a ball of energy at VanX that reached him before he smashed into the ground...
Arcee and Elilta-One both Gasped as they saw the Impact, the dust cloud that erupted from it, next to Megatron, everyone looked away as it happened and Arcee wept as she saw VanX land, Optimus fell limp as the last of the energy left him, Tarn noticed it and shook Optimus.
"Orion? Orion!" he said.
Megatron turned and looked at where the other thing fell as the smoke cleared, being faced by a Cybertronian he had never expected to come out of that smoke.
The Cybertronian looked at his hands, being shocked as he looked himself over.

VanX was shocked as he looked himself over, his body was modeled after the Razor Crest, but it was Navy blue like his armor, his Kama was there as well as his pauldron, his Rangefinder was there as well, and he felt his Jetpack was repaired. "What? How? I'm a Cybertronian." VanX said.
Megatron looked up and then started to laugh. "Ha ha, Orion you old fool, having an organic become one of us? You fool! And You~ You think you can be one of us?!" Megatron said as he pointed at VanX.
VanX looked down at his hands for a moment and then back up to Megatron. "And you call yourself a king? You wouldn't even make a King's boot cleaner with that ridiculous headwear of yours, what Bucket is that sturdy or cheap?" VanX said, making fun of Megatron.
In a fit of anger Megatron shouted. "DECEPTICONS, KILL THIS BOY WHO ISN'T A MANDALORIAN!" he said, calling for his still Loyal Decepticons, Shockwave, Soundwave and others to fight VanX, VanX's new Cybertronian Mandalorian Helmet hid his rage as Megatron insulted him, VanX got into a fighting pose as he readied himself to fight.
